[jira] Closed: (MRESOURCES-84) targetPath no longer relative

["Benjamin Bentmann (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRESOURCES-84?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Benjamin Bentmann closed MRESOURCES-84.
---------------------------------------

      Assignee: Benjamin Bentmann
    Resolution: Not A Bug

A path with a leading slash "/" is not a relative path. Either omit the {{<targetPath>}} or set it to a dot "." only.

> My POMs used to specify "/" as the output directory (targetPath) for resources (i.e. <project><build><resources><resource> ... <targetPath>/</targetPath> ...)  However, with Maven 2.0.10 (i.e. maven-resources-plugin 2.3) the targetPath is apparently not treated as relative to the build output directory.
> The Maven POM reference (http://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Build) says the default should be the base directory (and indeed not specifying a targetPath defaults to the correct place).
> However the Maven Model documentation (http://maven.apache.org/ref/current/maven-model/maven.html#class_resource) claims that targetPath is "relative to the target/classes directory (i.e. ${project.build.outputDirectory})"
> Given a <targetPath>/</targetPath> entry I get the following:
> [INFO] [resources:resources]
> [WARNING] Using platform encoding (UTF-8 actually) to copy filtered resources, i.e. build is platform dependent!
> [INFO] Copying 39 resources to /
> [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
> [ERROR] BUILD ERROR
> [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
> [INFO] /com/blah/blah/blah/my-resource-file (No such file or directory)
